    Really great poem, Nat, and I loved how you repeated that one line. The only thing I would suggest is watch your tenses again lol the one in the () are fine but in your second stanza you have overpowering but the other descriptions have -ed for past tense. Keep writing though I love reading.

    This looks a lot like a few poems I wrote last year (Reality's Brackets, endangered Species) and one I wrote not so long ago (Twenty Seven).

    I think this could have benefitted from an alternating rhyme scheme to boost the already even flow.

    The use of parentheses is interesting, though it fails in one aspect that it only describes the line and not the overall feeling of the piece. Would this piece work just as well without them? (Something I asked myself when trying this style.)

    The feel is very abstract, so if that was your intention then great job. The first word, vague, describes the poem best and you can take more than a few meanings and descriptions from it.

    I would like to ask what your motivation for this was and why you decided to to add the parentheses on the end.

    Diction is very interesting if a little disjointed, did you choose the words because of the meaning or because of how they sound?

    Overpowering tainted reflection instead of Tainted reflection overpowering would have been a stronger ending to the poem because it flows easier, makes more sense and put the emphasis on the reflection itself, not how overpowering it is.

    A good read.

    I found this really appealing. It was a joy to read, and I love the way the abstract feel to it almost pulls the reader back in. Well done. xx

    Your formating of this poem was very unique and quite cool. Your vocabulary use also added a greater depth to your message as only skilled vocabulary can. The title got me hooked, lol, because it has my name in it. The repitition of the same line at the end of each stanza has a cool finishing and connection effect to the poem. Overall, a nice write.

    I like the words that is away from the rest at the end of each line. It makes the words sink deeper.
